Accounting for No-Shows in Experimental Evaluation Designs
Abstract
This article examines how to estimate the effect of a program in the presence of no- shows—persons who are assigned to the program but do not participate. The article briefly discusses the methodological problems involved, describes two current experimental evaluations that are subject to these problems, presents several estimators that overcome these problems, outlines the conditions necessary for these estimators to be feasible, and describes two extensions of the analysis that illustrate a potentially broad range of further applications.

“…the ITT effect divided by the treatment group’s take-up rate if randomization is conducted properly, no control group families are ‘‘treated’’, and assignment to the experimental or Section 8- only groups has no effect on those who do not relocate through MTO (Bloom, 1984; Angrist et al., 1996).”

“While researchers often estimate TOT (or local average treatment effect [LATE]) using instrumental variables (IVs) analysis, the assumptions required for such analyses are likely violated in this study (Angrist, Imbens, & Rubin, 1996; H. S. Bloom, 1984).”

“Such analyses require the assumption that the treatment has no effect on students assigned to the program who did not experience the program, referred to as “no-shows” or “never-takers” (Angrist, Imbens, & Rubin, 1996; Bloom, 1984).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
